Originally incorporated in 1874, Maple Ridge is one of British Columbia’s oldest municipalities, built on a rich foundation of forestry, agriculture, and river-based commerce. The early community grew around historic settlements like Port Haney, where steamships once docked along the Fraser River to transport local timber and farm goods. Today, the preserved heritage buildings in the downtown core stand as a testament to this industrious past, blending seamlessly with modern residential developments.
The visual character of Maple Ridge is defined by its dramatic transition from urban density to rural tranquility. As you travel north from the bustling retail districts along Lougheed Highway, the landscape quickly shifts into the towering cedar forests of Silver Valley and the rolling horse pastures of Whonnock and Ruskin.

Living and working in this environment requires a deep appreciation for the local climate and terrain. The wet winter months bring heavy rainfall, dense fog, and occasional freezing temperatures that can make local routes like the Haney Bypass and the Golden Ears Bridge challenging to navigate. Our team at Safe Rack Towing is proud to be a part of this resilient community, providing the reliable recovery services that keep our local roads safe and clear year-round.

Towing was a great experience. They took great care of my car and kept me up to date the whole time, from when they picked it up to when they left it off.

I had to have my historic car towed to a shop to be fixed. I was worried, but the crew took care of it. They did as I asked and employed flatbed towing. They also took care of my car.
Autumn Wright
I had no clue what to do when my car battery died suddenly in the parking lot of a grocery store. I contacted for a battery servicing and the response was prompt and reassuring. The expert arrived with everything we needed and went right to work. He examined the battery, described the problem in layman's words and helped me get my car started again. I’m not going to say I felt like I was being taken advantage of, which is something I constantly worry about in these situations. He also advised me how to avoid the similar problem in future. The entire exchange seemed genuine and direct. I liked that he stayed a few more minutes to make sure everything was okay before he left. It made a tense situation feel doable. It is good to know that they also provide auto towing and roadside assistance and I know I can rely on them if something else happens.

The RV broke down on a family road trip, but these guys were able to have a heavy-duty tow ready in less than an hour. The driver knew a lot about big rigs, which made things a lot easier for us.
